Road Work Begins on Route 11 in Monroe Township, Snyder County

Montoursville, PA – Drivers are advised that road work will begin on Route 11 between just north of the Route 35 interchange and the overpass spanning Route 522 in Monroe Township, Snyder County.

On Friday, May 8, the contractor will remove line paint and rumble strips and place temporary line paint in preparation for drainage upgrades and road reconstruction.
